Since both GOTV and DSTV are sister companies under the Multichoice Africa group, several people think they share products like remotes which is not true. One of the most popular questions is, can a DSTV remote work on a GOTV decoder? This question made me curious so I decided to put the task into the experiment. Unfortunately, the DSTV remote failed to connect with my GOTV decoder.

So I contacted both DSTV Uganda and GOTV Uganda to inquire whether the DSTV remote can work on a GOTV decoder and their response was NO. Only the GOTV remote can connect with a GOTV decoder.

If your GOTV decoder has technical issues and you are thinking of replacing it, check out the GOTV remote prices and where you can buy them.
